Concrete Driveway & Patio Installation in West Bloomfield, MI

West Bloomfield lake lots, where the grade gets planned before the pour.

West Bloomfield is lake lots and hilly terrain, and on that kind of ground grade, runoff and drainage come first on any driveway or patio. A driveway that climbs from the road has to shed water without sending it toward the garage. A patio facing a lake has to fall away from the house while the yard keeps sloping toward the water. We plan both slabs in West Bloomfield together, so the water from one doesn't end up under the other.

New concrete, planned around your West Bloomfield lot

Underneath is rolling glacial till, with soft clay pockets beside sandy ones. We proof-roll the subgrade, replace the soft spots and build a thicker compacted base for both pours. West Bloomfield Township decides what paperwork a project needs, and we'll tell you what applies at the free estimate. If you have an HOA, we can prepare the layout and finish details its review asks for.

The ground under West Bloomfield

Rolling glacial till

The hills of southern Oakland County, a mix of dense clay with pockets of sand and stone left by retreating glaciers.

Till is unpredictable from one end of a driveway to the other. A soft clay pocket next to a sandy one gives a slab uneven support, so it cracks and settles in patches. Add sloped lots and runoff coming downhill, and water management matters as much as the concrete itself.

How we build in West Bloomfield

Proof-roll the subgrade to find soft spots, replace them, build a thicker compacted base, and plan the grade so runoff is carried around the slab.

What fails here first
  • Cracks and settling in uneven patches
  • Runoff washing across the driveway from uphill
  • Washed-out soil along slab edges
  • Steep driveways that ice over

West Bloomfield questions

Straight answers

We set the slope so water runs back toward the street and, where needed, add a crown or a channel near the garage. The base gets compacted to handle the slope. We plan it during the estimate.

Typical prices for every project are in the Metro Detroit cost guide, and more answers are on the FAQ page.
